It would be better if it said that the hbh options extension header MUST be first, instead of just recommending it. I think I will add that to my draft. > In the case of C, the router needs to keep looking at subsequent options > until one of three things happens: > > 1. a known HBH option is seen > indicating there are HBH options > 2. a known E2E option is seen > indicating there are no HBH options > 3. there are no more options > indicating there are no HBH options > > As a result, it's entirely possible that a router could need to parse > the entire option chain before it can determine whether there are any > HBH options. Yes, because of the point I just mentioned. That's a bug IMHO. However, the observed problems come from middleboxes that don't parse regular extension headers, not hbh option headers.
